Mathematicians should web search the arguments when artists were hit by the wave. Scientists in general and people that think humans know better.

This is probably the first time in history deep thinking is being replaced by a machine, but the overall arguments are the same in all cases. Graphical artists saw it first, then programmers, now mathematicians.

No, there is not stopping the wave. No, society won't probably be able to support the same number of mathematicians as before. But yes, there will still exist mathematicians after the wave break, just probably completely different than the old way.

And yes, some people will still try to do artisanal mathematics and say it's better, it probably is, if the artisanal mathematician in question is doing deep creative and out of the distribution work.
